Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 396 Loraine's Thoughts Wilson's gaze turned gloomy as he glanced at her.

"Dad, what do you really want from us? I've always known that you and Mom aren't really happy together, and I know that Hansen and I aren't legitimate children, but none of it matters to us. All we want is a harmonious family, but you've ruined everything," Loraine said meaningfully.

He walked over and sat beside her. He had never had a heart-to-heart conversation with Loraine before. All the while, he treated Hansen and Loraine as little kids, and never cared about their opinions. However, that day, he finally realized that the little girl in his eyes had already grown up.

She was no longer the little girl who would always ask him for sweets.

"Loraine, you know that I still love you." "No, you don't. You only love your power. Godfrey Group is everything to you. Dad, please just sign the divorce papers. I don't want to see Mom being unhappy for the rest of her life," she pleaded. Yvonne had been called the other woman for decades, yet she was still living a miserable life.

Loraine wanted her mother to be happy.

Wilson looked at her in a daze and asked, "Who told you about this?" "No one toldanything. I've been spending the past year in Godfrey Group, and I can clearly remember everything that they said about Mom and I. They do accept us, but that's only because Mom has their secrets in her hands," she said. His expression was cold. He didn't expect his own daughter to know so much.

"Loraine, stop. You know nothing about the adults' world." "But I know how Mom feels. If you insist on going your way, you won't get anything in return." Judging by his expression, Loraine knew that her words wouldn't change his mind.

However, she couldn't control him, and she didn't want to.

Wilson stood up. He took a deep breath and said, "Rest well. I'll visit you again sometsoon." She lowered her head and didn't say a word.

He knew that she was still holding a grudge against him, and didn't expect her to forgive him. He turned around and left.

Right at the corner of the corridor, he bumped into Everleigh, who was carrying a fruit basket. She was surprised to see him there.

"Miss Trevino, what a coincidence. It seems like I'll run into you every single tI cto visit Loraine," he said.

"Mr. Godfrey, just get to the point, you don't have to beat around the bush," she responded indifferently. She wasn't bothered by his attitude at all.

Through Loraine's incident, she had learned how ruthless this man was. All that courtesy was just a mask to hide his cruel and ugly side.

His expression stiffened. His eyes opened wide, and a trace of evil could be felt in his gaze. "Miss Trevino, you'd better think before you speak. It's not really kind of you to deliberately ruin the relationship between my daughter and I." She sneered, "Mr. Godfrey, your reasoning is rather shocking. Loraine isn't a kid anymore. She doesn't need others to tell her everything that is happening around her. How could you place the blon me?" "Things like this wouldn't have happened if people like you chose to keep your mouth shut," he responded. "Nope. If you weren't blinded by your greed, your relationship with your daughter would've been much better," she refuted.

"You... " He glared at her fiercely.

She wasn't scared at all. She stared back at him too.

They were locked in a stalemate. If it wasn't for a nurse who walked over to greet Dr. Trevino, neither of them would have backed away.

Wilson snorted and strode away.

Everleigh fixed her gaze on him until he vanished from sight. Then, she headed over to Loraine's ward.

Leon had brought over plenty of fruits earlier that day. She couldn't finish them, so she decided to turn them into a fruit basket to be given to Loraine. She didn't expect to run into Wilson. She was wondering if he had said something to the girl.

As she arrived at the ward, she saw Lorraine hugging her knees, with her head hanging low.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! "Loraine." She looked up and saw Everleigh who brought along sfruits. She then smiled faintly.

"Aunt Everleigh," she greeted.

"You don't have to fake a smile if you don't feel like it. It's worse than a crying face," Everleigh said. That smile on Loraine's face was indeed forced.

Loraine pouted at her words, "Aunt Everleigh, are you mockingright now?" "Hah! It seems like you're sharp enough to be able to sense my sarcasm. If you didn't understand my advice last time, I guess you do now, right?" Everleigh said as she handed her a piece of fruit. There were a lot of things in her mind, but Loraine didn't know where to start.

She opened her mouth and ate the piece of fruit. The fruit was so sour that it almost made her cry.

"I understand now. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I've already experienced death once." Loraine took a deep breath and swallowed the sour fruit.

Everleigh was relieved to hear her words.

"Here, have sfruits. I have to get back to work now," she said.

"Alright. Thank you, Aunt Everleigh," Loraine said gratefully.

She was sincerely grateful that Everleigh had been taking care of her all the while.

Everleigh smiled and walked out.

As she returned to Theodore's ward, he asked her, "Have you sent the fruits to her?" "Yes. I also met Mr. Godfrey along the way," she answered honestly.

He didn't react much upon hearing his father's name. He just felt slightly worried about it.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out op the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! "When can I be discharged from the hospital?" He asked.

"We'll do a checkup on you tomorrow morning. If there's nothing serious, you can go hthen," she said softly. Looking at how energetic Theodore was, he could definitely be discharged the next morning. Alastair looked at Adrienne who was already getting sleepy, and called out, "Mommy, Adrienne has fallen asleep." "I'll ask Hilda to cover right now and send you two back." She noticed that Adrienne was already asleep, and her mouth was stained red with the color of raspberries.

She was smiling in her sleep.

Hilda arrived shortly after. She carried Adrienne in her arms and walked out of the ward.

"Miss Everleigh, I'll bring them back right now. You should get srest too," Hilda said.

"Sure." Everleigh replied. After Hilda left the ward with the children, she turned around and noticed that the table was messy. She then proceeded to clear up the mess. "Letdo it," Theodore said.

"No. You are a patient, you should be resting," she answered without even looking over at him.

He smiled at her words.

After the table had been cleaned, she sat down on the sofa.

"You're really good at cleaning up. Too bad your cooking skills..."

"I know my cooking skills are hopeless," she agreed. She knew that she wasn't a gifted cook although Ο she was good at using knives. Not O kitchen knives, but surgical scalpels. Theodore was just bringing it up randomly. He then thought for a while and said, "Let's order takeout for tomorrow's dinner. I can send it over to your place." "You... You don't have to trouble yourself for this," Everleigh said.

"It's no trouble at all. Let's just do this tomorrow night." He had a plan in mind, but he wanted to keep it a secret.

She noticed that he was being mysterious, so she didn't dwell on it. She just let him be.
